"It's definitely the right time to say yes, Rachel will be back next year, as will some of her other friends. Ryan told me his plan, and I will tell you it's incredibly groundbreaking and it's revolutionary for television, the way he's figured out how to use these graduated high school characters on this TV show."

Also being reported out of the TCA event is that Grant Gustin, who plays Sebastian Smythe, will be back as a series regular next season. Sebastian is both loved and hated for making advances on Blaine, played by Darren Criss, and has already told Chris' character, Kurt, that he plans to break up Blaine and Kurt! Will Sebastian be redeemed or remain a villian if he becomes a regular next season?

Are you happy that the graduates will be back next season? Do you want Sebastian to be a regular next year?
